            It's not an artificial limitation by Arachnid2007-07-25 23:23:55
              Yes it is. OE has been able to do it since 1996. by shadowsystems 2007-07-25 23:35:48
So if their FREE, "lite" email client can, & has been able to for over a decade, why can't their $500 "fully loaded" client, in development for the last five years, do the same?

Not trying to flame, just making a point.
It IS artificially limiting Outlook.
When Outlook Express can do it, but Outlook can't, there's something wrong with Outlook.

Think of it this way:
What if you could open documents of ANY format in Notepad, but were limited to only MS .DOC files in the full-blown MS Word?
Is this something wrong with Notepad, or with Word?
The "lite" & essentially free Notepad able to do something the $300 version of MS' flagship word processing powerhouse *can't*?

MS has it's head up it's butt as usual. =}P
